PROBLEMS OR SUGGESTIONS:
Please email me or submit the problem or suggestion at http://tracker.pilot51.com. Usually Google Play comments or even Android crash reports don't tell me everything I need to know to fix it and there is no way for me to reply to either to ask for more details.

Along with another space app I have, this helps me predict that right moment to pause the tv and run outside... or to wake up extra early to run out with the dog to see the ISS... I heart this app!
